John Wick Chapter 4, the latest action adventure saga from the John Wick franchise, has taken a svery strong start at the global box office. The Keanu Reeves-starrer is on course to emerge as the biggest Hollywod movie of the year so far and has crossed $100 million in its opening weekend itself. In India too, the film has outperformed all Indian releases of the week.

A Variety report states that John Wick Chapter 4 has grossed $73.5 million in the North American market in its first three days. This is a franchise record, eclipsing the $56.8 million John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum made in its opening weekend in 2019. In comparison, the original John Wick opened to a modest $14 million back in 2014.

In addition, the film has also made $63 million globaly, taking its three-day worldwide gross to a healthy $137.5 million. At this pace, industry analysts are estimating the film should cross $200 million by its second weekend and is set for a lifetime haul of over $400 million. Keanu Reeves’ highest-grossing films are the three Matrix movies (The Matrix Reloaded- $742 million, The Matrix- $464 million, and The Matrix Revolutions- $427 million). John Wick 4 may pose a threat to one or two of those titles.
